    There are people who don’t just use the edge of whatever vessel the egg is going into?

        I prefer using the coping saw for eggs that are medium-sized or smaller. A delicate cut for a delicate egg!

      That’s a great way to get some extra calcium in whatever you are making.

      You know, from the eggshell fragments.

        How much force are you people using to crack an egg?

          It doesn’t take much when you are cracking eggs against an edge like that.

      I’m nearly 40 and I don’t think I’ve ever had blood in my eggs.

        I do a lot of baking, but even then it only happens once a year, if that. I still don’t want to have to throw out an entire batch of food because I cracked a bad egg into it instead of into a tea cup first.

    I get a bowl and crack it on the outside of the bowl (not the rim) then put it into the bowl to check for shells before it goes into wherever it needs to be.

    Smash it on my forehead. The egg goop runs down my face into my mouth. I eat the egg raw, shell and all. Then I do a primal yell and bust out another set of 20 reps. #legday

    If I’m doing more than one cracking two together is best. For the last one, countertop.

    I get the flat, inside-the-sink idea. But I’d want to clean either way, and I clean the counters more often than I clean the sides of the sink.

    I’m a corner of the sink man myself. Sometimes the counter top if I get lazy.
